Photo Album: Crawl Space stabilization in Saint-David, Qc
We have solidified this crawl space in Saint-David that had problems in its structure due to water presence.
So we installed our SmartJacks which are specially designed for crawl spaces. They support and stabilize your foundations and are adjustable to adapt to the movement of the ground.
Below you can find more details about this job.
Damp crawl space in Saint-David, Qc
A damp crawl space is the perfect breeding ground for mold and mildew.
Another sign of a wet basement
You can see here a wet old wood that was absorbing water from the ground.
Deterioration of the wooden beams
Mold strives on organic materials, and when it multiplies, those materials such as the wooden beams will be affected and might deteriorate.
Installation started
To install a crawl space jack, a hole is first created and a solid base of engineered fill is established under the location of the jack.
SmartJacks installed
The SmartJacks support pillars that are specially designed to fit the height of the crawl space while being adjustable to be tightened over time over time.
Benefits of the SmartJacks
Crawl space support jacks work by transferring the load of a house from the beams and sending it downwards into the existing soils.
